It examines how the CBP exploits video to fashion an image of itself as a humane and "benevolent" force. Studied as an ensemble, the videos fall under three distinctive categories: the agency's canine training program; CBP officers and volunteerism; and the agency's self-described "humanitarianism." By omitting reference to the agency's human rights abuses of migrants and refugees, the moving images opt for a representation of laboring officers executing their duties for the protection of the U.S. A contribution to scholarship in nontheatrical and nontraditional media, and border and immigration media, this essay examines the scope of propaganda production specifically in the context of border policing. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Film Criticism is the property of Film Criticism and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
